This campground has about 10 sites with electric and water. The rest are dry camping with a lot of shade. Sites are large and separated by plenty of greenery. Showers are clean and hot.
This was a very pleasant campground in November when it was 80% empty. A short walk over the dune to miles of empty beach. No hookups and cold showers, but the natural beauty and sound of the surf at night made it perfect. The pads are short and sites are close with no privacy. Can't say how it would rate when full.
Very well cared for campground. Sites are neat and spacious, with clearance for larger rigs. All sites have electric. Four sites are FF. We arrived on a Monday at noon and 3 of those were open. Showers were clean and hot. Good Verizon 4G service.
The Market at Cedar Point is an excellent small grocery with local produce and healthy foods.
Very nice state park. Sites are not large, but well separated by dense foliage. Electric and water hookups. Free hot showers. Some road noise from Rt 60, but also the sound of waves from the ocean if you get a site on the ocean side.
Many RV sites are listed as 20 ft max, but we fit our 24 ft trailer into one with room left to park the tow vehicle, although not enough room to use the fire pit. Check site photos.
There is a trail center nearby in the state park with a number of trails. Many things to do in Virginia Beach and Norfolk.
Very popular campground. We arrived the Tuesday after Labor Day weekend without a reservation thinking it would be easy to snag one of the 8 FF sites that fit RVs. There was only one site available, so we lucked out. Beautiful campground on the lake. Mostly full and partial shade, so don't plan on much solar. Sites are nice size and mostly separated. Verizon service poor with phone, but good with mobile router.
Stayed here on a Tuesday night right after hurricane Henri. The park was completely cleaned up from any damage or debris, all in great shape. No other campers here when we arrived, so totally silent. No road noise. Most sites are relatively short level pads, with little or no shade, but very pleasant. We picked site 33 for the best shade and longer pad. Wished we had time to check out the hiking trails accessible from the campground.
This is the kind of camping experience we love. Stayed 3 nights and would have enjoyed a few more. Secluded and rustic. Only 10 sites, all FF. Large wooded sites, plenty of privacy. We arrived on Friday and only 3 other sites were occupied. The FS sure says this fits RVs up to 24 ft. Most sites could fit much larger rigs, but the loop road is narrow and could be a problem turning. Our 24 ft TT made it easily. No water, electric or dump station. Vault toilets. 15-30 minute drive to numerous waterfall hikes and the town of Watkins Glen. Our only disappointments were the little bit of garbage left by previous campers and the mosquitoes.
This listing is problematic. There is a Highbanks Campground inside Letchworth State Park, NY, which is where we stayed. This listing is for a commercial campground with the same name on the Allegheny Reservoir. Some reviews and photos here are for the state park.
Remote and quiet campground. About 20% occupied on a weekend in early August. We claimed one of the many FF sites that were open. Sites are all large with privacy between, generally level, partial or full shade. Lots of very tall trees. Vault toilets, pumps for potable water. Intermittent Verizon service with a mobile router and external antenna. There are about 15 hiking trail segments accessible from this campground, so great base for hiking. This campground has a rustic feeling and is not as groomed as others nearby, such as Red Bridge. Many sites are closed and not maintained. After settling into our wooded site, we noticed some large dead limbs high above our trailer, but took our chances and had no incidents.
Very nice campground with some huge old trees. Large sites, good privacy between, mostly full out partial shade. Trees for hammocks. Very quiet at night. No road noise. A few drive-in and walk-in sites have their own short paths to the reservoir. Can drive to a number of nice hiking and mountain biking trails. The reservoir is murky and had oil film from all the motor boats. Not good swimming.
Gave it an extra star for proximity to Cuyahoga Valley NP, bargain price for a site with electric hookups, quiet setting and helpful hosts. No road noise, other campers very considerate. Sites are grass or overgrown gravel. Semi-level. Our first visit at site #1 was very difficult to level a 24 ft trailer and full sun. Returned a few weeks later to site #4, was much more level and full shade. There is also a wooded walking trail network on the east and North sides of the campground.

Municipal CG, very well cared for. Very popular, so difficult to get weekend reservations. Our site (86) was level, partly shaded. No hookups. Generator hours are very limited and enforced, which we appreciate. Free hot showers. There is a sandy beach for swimming in Casco Bay, if you can brave the chilly water. A nice nature trail around the campground peninsula with great views of the bay, nearby hiking trails, L.L. Bean flagship store in nearby Freeport, and 20 minutes to Portland.
Spent one night here midweek in late May. Most campsites were unoccupied, so very quiet. Site 172 is right along a babbling brook. Showers were hot and free. Everything was very well maintained. The nearby small lake has a large sandy beach and beautiful views. Would have been nice for paddling around if we'd had more time. No Verizon signal on our phones, but our mobile router had 4G data.
All the campgrounds on Ruedi reservoir changed to reservation-only through recreation.gov for the 2020 season due to COVID. There is speculation they will remain that way even after the pandemic is over.
Stayed here several weekdays in late July, but could not book a weekend a month ahead. Beautiful lake and views. Lots of great hiking trails within a 30-60 minute drive. Spacious sites and the hilly terrain adds some privacy. A few sites near the reservoir have trees, but most are in open scrubland. We moved from here to Elliott Creek Campground on the opposite side of the lake, which is a first come campground.
We initially planned to stay 5 days, but extended to 10 because we liked the campsite and nearby hiking trails so much. Even though most sites are not very private and there is a lot of activity on the lake, it still felt very peaceful. At 8000 feet, the days were comfortable and the nights cool in late July and early August. You can walk 50 feet to a couple isolated spots on the lake shore and set up chairs to swim, fish, relax. In summer, all sites are usually full for the weekends by Thursday afternoon. Monday through Wednesday only had a couple other sites occupied. Allen the camp host was very helpful and interesting to chat with. Stayed here in a 24' trailer. The most secluded sites are ideal for tents. A few sites will handle larger rigs, with 3 pull throughs. Saw a class A in a site for a couple nights.
Secluded sites in a small, dense patch of trees. Good for tent camping and very small trailers. Accessible via a maintained dirt road, but the road in the campground is a little rough. A few hundred yards from multiple trailheads. The sites are only about 20-50 feet from the road, which has moderate vehicle traffic going to and from the nearby trailheads early morning through late afternoon, but quiet at night.
